http://www.nma.tv The world is focused on the US presidential primaries. But did you know that Taiwan will elect its president on Saturday? Taiwan is the only place in the Chinese-speaking world where people can freely choose their leaders. Voting is NOT something we take for granted. Our choices: The KMT's Ma Ying-jeou, the incumbent president who has edged Taiwan closer to China. The DPP's Tsai Ing-wen, an academic and former vice-premier whose party favors independence from China. Or former Taiwan provincial governor and ex-KMT member James Soong, for people who want to waste their votes. Turnout typically tops 80 percent, and Taiwanese fly home from all over the world just to vote.
